- T'was the night before Christmas, and all through the house
Not a creature was sleeping -- not pet, child or spouse.
The people were tossing and turning in beds
With visions of bills dancing 'round in their heads.
- I made myself a snowball,
As perfect as could be,
I thought I'd keep it as a pet,
And let it sleep with me.
I made it some pyjamas,
And a pillow for its head,
Then last night it ran away,
But first - it wet the bed!
- This Christmas,
I won’t ask much,
Whether it is gifts or cash
All will be accepted in a dash.
- I don’t have much for you this Christmas
Except for this card packed with love and care
The gifts will be delayed, though.
Expect them to come in the whole year round.
Merry Christmas!
- Roasted turkey, stuffing balls
Scented candles, fresh snowfalls,
Ginger beer, tree of pine
What lovely smells at Christmas time
- It's Christmas time the snow is falling
Those pesky carollers keep calling
I'll keep on drinking the rum punch
Whilst preparing the Christmas lunch
I've burnt the turkey, dropped the grub
Next year we'll have it down the pub!
